Pet Immigration Rules Vanuatu
REGULATIONS FOR TAKING A PET DOG OR CAT TO VANUATU
Vanuatu has very strict quarantine regulations for pets coming into
the country. Prior to bringing a pet to Vanuatu you must apply for
an Import Permit from the Vanuatu Quarantine & Inspections Service.
Pets can ONLY enter Vanuatu from the countries of Australia, New
Zealand and the United Kingdom. Pets may NOT enter Vanuatu from any
other country.
Shortly before travel, a licensed veterinarian must complete the
Vanuatu Veterinary Certificate.
A heavy penalty will apply for breach of Vanuatu Quarantine laws.

Failure to comply with these regulations will mean that your pet may
be refused entry and the relevant authority in consultation
with an authorized veterinarian can decide to return the pet home, or place
the pet in quarantine at the expense of the owner or natural person
responsible for pet, or as a last resort, without financial
compensation, put the pet down where the return trip home or
quarantine cannot be arranged.
All other pets (birds, invertebrates, tropical fish, reptiles,
amphibia, mammals such as rodents and rabbits) are not subject to
the regulations in respect of the anti-rabies vaccination but may
have to meet other requirements as to a limit on the number of
animals and a certificate to accompany them in respect of other
diseases. Pet owners are strongly advised to seek further information
from the relevant authority of their country and/or that of the
country of destination.
